Описание: A critique of prominent architects’ approach to digitally driven design and labor practices over the past two decades With the advent of revolutionary digital design and production technologies, contemporary architects and their clients developed a taste for dramatic, unconventional forms. Seeking to amaze their audiences and promote their global brands, “starchitects” like Herzog & de Meuron and Frank Gehry have reaped substantial rewards through the pursuit of spectacle enabled by these new technologies. This process reached a climax in projects like Gehry’s Guggenheim Bilbao and the “Bilbao effect,” in which spectacular architectural designs became increasingly sought by municipal and institutional clients for their perceived capacity to enhance property values, which author Pedro Fiori Arantes calls the “rent of form.”Analyzing many major international architectural projects of the past twenty years, Arantes provides an in-depth account of how this “architecture of exception” has come to dominate today’s industry. Articulating an original, compelling critique of the capital and labor practices that enable many contemporary projects, Arantes explains how circulation (via image culture), consumption (particularly through tourism), the division of labor, and the distribution of wealth came to fix a certain notion of starchitecture at the center of the industry.Significantly, Arantes’s viewpoint is not that of Euro-American capitalism. Writing from the Global South, this Brazilian theorist offers a fresh perspective that advances ideas less commonly circulated in dominant, English-language academic and popular discourse. Asking key questions about the prevailing logics of finance capital, and revealing inconvenient truths about the changing labor of design and the treatment of construction workers around the world, The Rent of Form delivers a much-needed reevaluation of the astonishing buildings that have increasingly come to define world cities.

Описание: Operating Safely in Hazardous Environments, Second Edition is designed to meet the many training/certification regulations required of employees working in: - Waste operations (including Hazardous Waste Operations and Treatment, Storage and Disposal (TSD) Facilities) - Permit-required confined spaces and enclosed areas - Emergency response situations - Toxic materials--work with Asbestos, Lead, Mold/Fungi and Hazardous Chemicals - Work at heights, on scaffolding, and in trenches and excavations This program will easily and effortlessly lead you through a review of the knowledge necessary to continue to work in these dangerous areas, including: - Public and workplace hazard detection - Identification of hazardous situations and events - Mitigation of dangers - Operations in these dangerous environments Providing both review materials and exercises to foster discussion and test your knowledge, this program will provide a thorough practice of skills associated with operating safely in each type of hazardous environment. The Second Edition has been revised to reflect updates in technology, equipment, and regulations. New content includes: - The National Incident Management Systems (NIMS): a comprehensive, national approach to incident and organizational management that coordinates both public and private responses to hazard scenarios. The NIMS is required to be adopted by all jurisdictions that support a federal activity or receive federal funding or grants. - Basic life support review: first aid and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) information - Lead, asbestos, and fungal remediation protocols

Описание: National aid workers constitute the majority of aid staff in the field - upwards of 90 per cent for most international NGOs - and undertake the bulk of the work in assisting people in need. Although the statistics show that international (expatriate) aid workers have a higher per capita rate as victims of violent attacks, national staffers, because of their higher numbers and greater exposure in frontline field positions, comprise the vast majority of victims every year. Despite overall improvements in aid agenciees, security risk management, national aid workers perceive continued inequities in security support compared with their international counterparts. This report highlights the issue of national staff's specific needs in terms of operational security, expanding on the findings of the recent study <em>To Stay and Deliver: Good Practice for Humanitarians in Complex Security Environments</em>.

Описание: Synergistic Design of Sustainable Built Environments introduces and illustrates a novel systems approach that fosters both design excellence and a leap toward a more biocentric (ecologically sustainable) design paradigm. The book provides a deeper understanding of the theories and principles of biocentric design and offers detailed descriptions of the synergistic design process of integrating theories and principles into practice. It also presents extensive thermal and visual built environment design strategies, along with qualitative and quantitative information that designers can use to generate feasible solutions in response to varying climate and occupant comfort.Features:Examines the principles and practices of the synergistic design (a fusion of anthropocentric and biocentric) of sustainable built environments and how they relate to practical applications.Presents climatic data and its analysis along with sun-path diagrams for numerous cities to aid in the design of sustainable built environments in multiple regional contexts. Includes numerous case studies of sustainable built environments in varying climatic zones.Explains how renewable energy (solar, wind, biomass, geothermal, hydro, fuel cells) can be successfully integrated in the built environment.This forward-thinking and highly illustrated book will be an invaluable reference to all those concerned with sustainable built environments and related architectural issues.
